Does this apply to how peptides are grouped or how protein inference is done?

@veitveit I've added the GUI element to my local working copy but I'm struggling to implement the actual functionality to only use unique peptides.
Currently, the grouping is done by peptide shaker. The protein groups are automatically generated so in the MSnbase object all our peptides have nprot = 1 (meaning a unique matching).
@jgriss In MSbase, on can use the grouBby option in the combineFeatures function. We have scripts to do redo the protein grouping by e.g. parsimony principle. So this is in principle doable without too much effort.
When reprocessing data, having the option will help to compare IsoLabeledProtocol results to the ones done in the original studies.
But I will move the milestone to 0.2 as this is not that urgent.
@veitveit
I think that it will require a bit more code since MSnbase is currently treating a protein group as one protein. But I fully agree that this is doable and will be a very sensible feature. I'll add the GUI element just without any option for now.
@veitveit The drop-down box is there, but currently only displays a single option. Do you want to keep this issue open until we have the functionality in the R code as well?
@jgriss yes, let's leave it open until we have a first solution for an alternative grouping
Simple options would be: a) grouping of shared proteins (this is happening now) b) only unique peptide
Future options could/will be different versions of the parsimony principle
